JOHNSONQ'OF YORK, N. Y.
HAND-PROTECTOR.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, MARY JOHNSON, a citizen of the United States, and a resident of the city of New York, borough of Manhattan, in the county and State of New York, have'invented a new and Improved Hand-Protector, of .which the following is a full, clear, and exact description.
The invention relates to laundry appli ances and its object is to provide a new and improved hand protector or mitten arranged to enable the user to evenly and thoroughly rub-hot starch into cuffs, collars and similar articles while in process of manufacture and without danger of injury to the hand of the operator.
In order to accomplish the desired result, use is made of a hand protector in the form of a mitten made of a textile fabric and provided at the inside with a pad overlying the under side of the finger and palm portions, and formed of a plurality of layers of textile materials with the edges attached to the edges of the mitten. Use is also made of extending the palm in an outward direction to form closing flaps adapted to pass onto the back of the hand and to overlap thereon and fastening deviceson the said flaps for fastening the flaps together at the back of the hand.
A practical embodiment of the invention is represented in the accompanying drawings forming a part of this specification, in which similar characters of reference indicate corresponding parts in all the views.
Figure l is a perspective view of the hand protector as applied and showing the finger po tion in use for. rubbing starch onto a cu I Fig. I is a similar View of the same and showing the palm in use for applying starch to a cufi' Fig. 3 is an enlarged inverted plan view of the hand protector with parts broken out; and
Fig. 4 is a sectional side elevation of the same on the line41 of Fig. 3.
, In the manufacture ofstifi bosom shirts, cuffs, collars and similar articles, it is necessary to rub hot starch intothe textile material for stiflening purposes. This application of the starch is (mostly done by hand and even with the use of machines constructed for this purpose it frequently becomes Specification of Letters Patent.

necessary to finish the rubbing in of the starch by hand. The rubbing in of the starch by hand is very hard on the hand of the operator as both the fingers and the palm have to be used and the hand soon becomes raw from the effect of the hot starch and the contact with the weave of the material. Mittens or gloves of leather or other similar material cannot be effectively used as they are not sufliciently flexible to insure a thorough and even rubbing in ofthe starch. In order to protect the operators hands and to allow a proper rubbing in of the hot starch into the fabric material is the main object of the invention presently described in detail.
The hand protector is formed of a top 10 and a mitten bottom 11, the top and bottom being overlapped and fastened together alongthe edges by stitches 12, and the rear edges of the top and bottom 10 and 11 are doubled up, and each doubled-up portion is provided with rows of stitches 13 and 14: to form binding edges, at the same time providing an opening for the introduction of the hand. formed is arranged a pad 15 overlying the under side of the finger and bottom portions and formed of a plurality of layers of textile materials, the edges of the pad 15 being attached by the stitches 12 to the edges of the top 10 and the bottom 11. The rear edge of the pad 15 is fastened by the stitches 14 in position to the bottom 11. In practice the parts 10 and 11 are preferably made of muslin while the layers forming the pad 15 have the lowermost layer muslin while the remaining layers are preferably made of gauze, as indicated in Fig. 3.
The palm of the hand protector is provided with sidewise extensions forming flaps l6 and "17 adapted to be passed onto the back of the wearers hand with the ends of the flaps overlapping at the back of the hand. The ends of the flaps Y16 and 17 are provided with fastening devices 18 and 19, such as socket and stud members, adapted to engage one the other to fasten the flaps in overlapping position together. By the arrangement described the palm of the hand protector remains completely unobstructed Within the hand protector thus then the pad bot- I plied to the article to be starched, and evenly tom finger portion can be readily passed into the receptacle containing the hotstarch to take up a suflicientquantity of this starch and rub it into the cuff, collar or' other article to be starched. If necessary, a further rubbing action may be given by raising the fingers and with them this portion of the protector to'allow the use of the palm for a further rubbing action of another nature.
It will be noticed that as the bottom 11 and the pad 15 are both of light textile fabric the starch can be readily taken up, ap-
and, thoroughly rubbed into the same .wit out injury to the hand of the operator. will further be noticed that by the construction described a desired pliability is bad of the bottom 11 and the pad 15 so that the operator can deftly apply the starch taken up to every part of the article to' be starched, and at the same time the handof the operator is protected 1 The protector be cheaply manufactured so that when it becomes torn by repeated use it can be readily thrown away and a new one used.
Having thus described my invention, I
